My husband manages much better than I do. <BR/><BR/>I was just thinking how when I was a child there was a phrase: 'The camera never lies'. Pretty laughable these days, when we can make photos say whatever we want them to say with a bit of digital adjustment!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11835205817921501248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1143472913959304552006-03-27T10:21:00.000-05:002006-03-27T10:21:00.000-05:00For me, the focal point were all the cracks in the...For me, the focal point were all the cracks in the walkway - they are quite pleasant.

One example I witnessed was of a piece of art hanging in a room. The "camera" would pan around the wall and up to the piece of art. It gave the viewer a perspective you just wouldn't get staring at the piece straight-on. This approach, too, does not alter the piece, but simply adds perspective.<BR/><BR/>I like what you did with the photo - simple, understated and yet so effective.Turtle Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11867461015503674899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-1143433627804149422006-03-26T23:27:00.000-05:002006-03-26T23:27:00.000-05:00I too love playing with my photo software.

I'm 60 and am so challenged by the digital world. Without my husband's help I'd still be wrestling with stone and chisels, but he's terrific. I was about to delete a so-so pix I took in Arizona and he suggested I play around with it in ACDSee and Zowie! - What fun! I agree about avant-garde efforts, but this otherwise dull daytime photo became very effective and is now one of my favorite pixes of the trip.
